Ooph, yeah I can see this turning into a big headache for large community repos. People are going to submit a first pull and then start opening issues like "Why hasn't pull request #123 been approved yet?, "Please approve my pull #456", etc. within minutes and hours.

...maaaayyyyybe.

But on the other hand, it makes it less likely that crypto miners will bother opening up junk PRs against your repo. So you save some time there.

People already do that regardless of this new feature.
